Exciting News!
No, I am not pregnant! I was made aware this week that I have received full tuition to the University of Toledo's special education scholarship program. The state of Ohio is recruiting current classroom teachers to complete licensure that provides the opportunity to become a certified special education teacher. Since I am maintaining a position under a temporary special education license, I was given priority into the program. I will complete the program on a part-time basis via distant online learning and will not have to be away from home. There are currently only 10 candidates across the state of Ohio participating in U of Toledo's program and I am lucky enough to be one. I will begin next week with anticipated completion in the summer of 2009. From there, I will be about 5 classes away from my Master's degree. Once finished, I will be certified to teach special education from Preschool to grade 3. It is all very exciting and the best news is we won't have to pay a dime. It will be a lot of work but a piece of cake compared to being the mother of a toddler and an infant! Our love to all!
